Post WTF - an ///M Tundra??
Was driving my pickup to work this morning, and got behind a Toyota Tundra pickup (V8, 4WD, extended cab). There by the Toyota badge on the tailgate, was the BMW ///M badge. There were no outside signs that this guy had made ANY mods to the truck, as it had stock exhaust, wheels, tires, etc.

For some reason, this REALLY bothered me. I tried to get next to him to find out if he was really an ///M owner, but I couldn't get his attention. Do any of you own another vehicle that you'd put an ///M logo on? Why would anyone put a BMW logo on their Toyota?

I wouldn't worry too much. I'm sure its just a joke and nothing else. It is kind of funny. Just try to lighten up and laugh at him - anyone who knows the //M5 symbol knows what the REAL M5 is!
But take a look at this picture:

a few more words: Joke. Silly. Sarcasm. Just Kidding. Humor. Or maybe he hauls stuff around for the local BMW dealer.

...and no, my Tundra doesn't have an ///M logo. Nor does my Beast have TRD logos.

THAT PISSES ME OFF! I can't stand people like this! Driving a fu*king jalopy with a bmw logo on his ****-*** taurus! Why do people do this kinda crap! THEY DON'T LOOK COOL!

The other day i was working and this ford astro van pulls in the parking lot with his stereo pumping NWA and gold trim around the windows, a bungie cord holding up the front bumper, and more rust than a Russian Yugo...damn it was funny to watch...

The Taurus picture must be a joke, made up with the help of a photo editing program. The ///M badge looks like you could see through it.
